This is an important conversation about what happens after the initial flush of sobriety. What happens if quitting alcohol unearths other things to address? The cover image sums up Laura perfectly. She’s vibrant, funny and full of life but after the 100 day milestone she was struggling.

Having gone sober in the past she knew that this was the point she often returned to drinking telling herself that “I feel rubbish so what’s the point?”. This time though she got help. She was supported to dig deeper and to addresses the underlying issue.

Now she’s back to her wonderfully bubbly self and her sobriety is stronger as a result. Sometimes drinking masks things that need to be dealt with.

In this episode, Louisa is joined by James who went sober at the end of 2022. James talks about how sobriety unlocked the opportunity for him to own his own Pilates studio in Margate, stepping away from the hustle of London. He also explores the shift in how work feels when you’re no longer just getting through the day, but actually engaging with it in a more intentional way and how interpersonal relationships change.

A central theme throughout this conversation is James’ drive to live life fully from a place of presence, clarity, and a deeper connection to what matters.

This episode offers a real perspective on what changes when alcohol is no longer part of the picture, and what becomes possible when you start living with more awareness and purpose.
